The K2 Performance Pad set is a great way to protect your protruding body parts and protect them from bumps, bruises, road rash, and worse. Sure, for adults, it may not look really cool or hip to have pads on, but it looks pretty square to have a skinned knee in your adult life. Be responsible for your body parts as you progress in the sport. This K2 Performance Pad set comes complete with knee, wrist, and elbow pads, so those precious pieces of your body will be well-protected in the event of a fall. In my experience as an adult inline skater, whether you’re skating ironically or on purpose, there’s going to be a fall. As you get older, like me, these falls certainly take a lot more out of you than when you were young, adding to the necessity to having a good set of pads. Put aside the awkward looks of the pads and just focus on sheer functionality. Pavement is hard. You’re up high on a set of boots with wheels on the bottom. It doesn’t matter if you’re the best inline skater in the world, the chances of you falling are quite high. You don’t get a second chance or a do-over when you hit the hard ground. Road rash takes a long time to heal, and it does not feel very good. Have you ever had your full body weight come crashing down on your elbow on concrete? It does not feel good. Get a set of the K2 Performance pads and mitigate certain disaster.
